      C5 calipers to stock steel lines, what flex line?

      I have everything i need now with the exception of the Banjo line on the caliper to the steel lines from where the old rubber line was. My question is can I use the C5 stock lines and have an adapter or something to connect it to the stock steel drum lines??

      I used Earl's braided steel lines for a 1969 Camaro on my '68 with C5 front calipers.

      The board gave you the solution, pointed you to the web site that sells them and explained how the pricing works; did you want us to come over and install them too?

      thats for the set. mine included the 2 front hoses and a rear hose. If i had it to do over id opt for another brand that has the coating over the stainless hose. It prevents dirt and grime from working its way into the weave, and continual fricton could lead to eventual fraying.

      I believe goodridge is one of the companies selling the coated versions.

      I would use the GM copper washers, I have found that all others leak!

      Just ordered the lines from Kore3, 71.00 delivered. Sounds pretty fair to me, I also ordered the clear lines I will post pics when i receive them. Thanks for the help!

      I just ordered a set of brake lines from Kore3 also. They asked me the right questions to make sure I got what I needed. I ordered the black lines.
